Chapter 202

Wu Mengmeng didn’t think much of it. She simply told Lin Meng to take care of his health and left.

"Sister Lanzhi, do you know how dangerous that was? I almost blew my cover!" Lin Meng pulled Wu Lanzhi out and complained, still reeling from the shock.

Wu Lanzhi didn’t care in the slightest. "Xiaomeng, didn’t you find it thrilling? It felt like the rush of a secret affair. Wasn’t it intensely satisfying, both physically and mentally?"

"Sister Lanzhi, you really know how to play," Lin Meng couldn’t help but sigh.

"This is nothing. When I used to follow those bosses around, I learned plenty. Someday, I’ll let you try hot wax. It’s even more stimulating than this," Wu Lanzhi said, licking her red lips, her eyes burning with passion.

"Sister Lanzhi, are you sure you want *me* to try it, and not just play with it yourself?" Lin Meng’s expression turned a bit strange.

Because of her past experiences, Wu Lanzhi’s inner promiscuity had clearly been fully unlocked, and her tolerance for kinks had become exceptionally high. Previously, living alone in the village, she could only suppress it in her heart. However, after yesterday’s events, she had completely let loose.

"Is there a difference?" Wu Lanzhi asked, blinking her eyes.

"Uh... I suppose not." Lin Meng paused for a moment. It seemed that no matter how wild her kinks were, he would be the one reaping the pleasure in the end.

"Then why are you overthinking it? No one is here to bother us right now, so let’s hurry up and continue!" Wu Lanzhi gave Lin Meng a reproachful yet flirtatious look before lowering her head again, enthusiastically going back to bobbing her head.

Half an hour later.

Having fully released his pent-up energy, Lin Meng finally returned home, thoroughly satisfied. Afterward, he didn’t waste a single moment and immediately started brewing the Beauty Liquid.

For him right now, building a factory required two main things: funding and a stable source of medicinal herbs. Until both were fully secured, he wouldn’t rush into launching the project.

By evening, Lin Meng had produced a full five large bottles of Beauty Liquid. Just as he was about to eat dinner and continue his work, he suddenly received a call from Zhao Lingshan.

As soon as he answered, Zhao Lingshan’s anxious voice came through the receiver. "Good brother, do you have time right now?"

Sensing something was wrong, Lin Meng quickly replied, "I do. Did something happen on your end, Sister Lingshan?"

"It’s not me, it’s Tiantian!" Zhao Lingshan said rapidly. "She just called me, saying she ran into some trouble at school. She’s outside the school all by herself right now and doesn’t know what to do. I wanted to go pick her up, but I’m tied up with some matters here and really can’t get away. Could you please go check on her for me?"

"Xia Tiantian is in trouble?" Lin Meng’s heart tightened. He immediately said, "Sister Lingshan, send me her location. I’ll head over right away!"

Zhao Lingshan didn’t waste any words and promptly sent him a location pin. Upon receiving it, Lin Meng didn’t dare delay for even a second. He hastily informed his stepmother and rushed out the door.

On the way, Lin Meng was burning with anxiety. Xia Tiantian had grown up with him since childhood. No matter if he was doing well or struggling, she never despised or looked down on him. Instead, she constantly offered encouragement and help. There was a special bond between the two of them.

Xia Tiantian was a high school senior this year. He had heard her grades were excellent. Under normal circumstances, unless something major had happened, she wouldn’t have left the school campus at all. Even if she did, her first instinct would be to go home and find her parents. Yet, she hadn’t done that. Instead, she contacted Zhao Lingshan, which meant whatever trouble she had encountered was definitely not trivial.

The more he thought about it, the more anxious he became, wishing he could sprout wings and fly directly to her.

An hour and a half later.

Lin Meng finally arrived at the location Zhao Lingshan had sent. It was a small park in the county town, mostly deserted at this hour. Scanning the area, Lin Meng quickly spotted Xia Tiantian’s figure.

She was wearing a white dress, squatting under a streetlamp with her head buried in her knees. She looked frail and utterly helpless.

"Tiantian, are you okay?!" Lin Meng’s heart ached for her as he quickly ran over.

"Lin Meng?" Xia Tiantian raised her head in surprise, her first reaction being that she was hallucinating. But when she saw Lin Meng standing right in front of her, she could no longer control her emotions. She threw herself into his arms and began to cry softly. "*Sob*... Lin Meng, I’m so scared. People at school bullied me, and I really don’t know what to do anymore... *Sob*..."

"Tiantian, it’s okay now. Don’t worry, I will protect you!" Lin Meng felt terrible. He gently patted her back and comforted her with a tender voice.

After quite a while, Xia Tiantian’s emotions finally stabilized. She pulled away from Lin Meng, wiped away her tears, and asked curiously, "Lin Meng, why are you here?"

"Sister Lingshan asked me to come..." Lin Meng explained the situation to her.

Xia Tiantian nodded and said weakly, "Lin Meng, I’m sorry for troubling you today."

"Tiantian, considering our relationship, saying things like that means you’re looking down on me. If you say that again, I’m leaving right now!" Lin Meng feigned displeasure.

Xia Tiantian instantly panicked and quickly grabbed his arm. "Don’t! I won’t say it anymore, okay?"

"That’s more like it!" Lin Meng stopped teasing her and asked seriously, "Tiantian, tell me who bullied you at school. I’ll get revenge for you tomorrow!"

"Just forget it..." Xia Tiantian lowered her head, looking hesitant, as if she didn’t want to drag him into her mess.

"Tiantian, you know my personality. If you don’t tell me, I’ll go make a scene at your school tomorrow. I have to stand up for you!" Lin Meng insisted firmly.

"Don’t!" Xia Tiantian knew he was entirely capable of doing just that. She hurriedly said, "I’ll tell you, okay? It’s a rich kid named Chen Chao. He’s been pursuing me, but I’ve rejected him every time.

"Maybe because graduation is approaching, he knows he’ll soon have zero chances left, so he confessed to me again and even demanded I go out and get a hotel room with him.

"When I refused, he used his family’s connections to have the school expel me and kick me out. He even said that if I don’t agree by tomorrow, he’ll have my student record permanently deleted.

"My parents are in poor health, and I didn’t dare go home and tell them about this, so I had no choice but to call Sister Lingshan."

The more Xia Tiantian spoke, the more heartbroken she felt, her tears rolling down her cheeks non-stop.

Lin Meng felt like his heart was breaking. He wiped her tears away, his eyes blazing with fury. "Damn it, that guy is total scum! Does he really think having money makes him invincible? Don’t worry, Tiantian, I will definitely make him pay!"

Xia Tiantian immediately grew tense. "Xiaomeng, whatever you do, don’t be impulsive! I heard that Chen Chao has a pretty powerful background in this county town!"

Lin Meng smiled and reassured her, "Tiantian, relax. I’ve gotten to know quite a few people in the county town recently. Dealing with him shouldn’t be a problem."

Xia Tiantian had no idea what Lin Meng had been through lately and assumed he was just saying that to keep her from worrying. Her eyes darted around as she said, "Lin Meng, even if you want to help me get revenge, it’ll have to wait until tomorrow. Let’s just find a place to stay for now!"

"You’re right." Lin Meng thought about it and gave a light nod. He led Xia Tiantian out of the park, planning to find a hotel to settle into first.

But just as the two of them were walking down the street, a car suddenly slammed on its brakes and stopped right next to them. Immediately after, the car door opened, and a pleasantly surprised voice rang out from inside.

"Holy shit! I thought I saw wrong just now, but it really is you, Divine Doctor Lin!"
